World Traveler

I grew up in a little town

A southern mix of lost and found

Where most folks seem to stick around

But I could hear the highway song

I'd sit out on the dock till dawn

And dream about the great beyond

(I dreamed that I was)

A world traveler

Set me loose to find my way

Just get me out on the road someday

With my sails unfurled

So many mysteries

I wanted to unravel

If I could travel the world

Soon enough I had my way

I saw the world the Lord has made

Mostly from the interstate

But I had hardly seen a thing

Until I gave a golden ring

To the one who gave her heart to me

(And I became)

A world traveler

That's the day I hit the road

'Cause I walked the hills of the human soul

Of a tender girl

I'm a world traveler

She opened the gate and took my hand

And led me into the mystic land

Where her galaxies swirl

So many mysteries

I never will unravel

I want to travel the world

Take a left at the end of my street

Just a few doors down

Up the hill and into the trees

There's a hole in the ground

Where we traveled the caverns so deep

We wandered the wonders so wide

It was right beneath our feet

All this time, all this time

Tonight I saw the children in their rooms

Little flowers all in bloom

Burning suns and silver moon

And somehow in that starry sky

The image of the Maker lies

Right here beneath my roof tonight

(So hold on tight, I'm a)

World traveler

Pack yours bags and dig down deep

Let's ride the storms and sail the seas

To the distant pole

I'm a world traveler

Into these uncharted lands

To blaze a trail in the vast expanse

Of the heart and soul

In the grace of the God of peace

Let's wade into the battle

Come on, come on with me

And get up in that saddle

There's a million mysteries

I never will unravel

Come on, let's travel the world
